SSWC: A blog created for lovers of skulls, curios, and obscura... For those who are drawn to all things eclectic, macabre, grotesque, bizarre, and beautiful. If you march to the beat of a different drum, you are most definitely welcome here.

Thanks Missp... I know they are nice compliments. I simply embellished this excellent example and most of the credit goes to the original SH Modeler. The practice of preparing shrunken heads originally had religious significance (uh oh religion again) shrinking the head of an enemy was believed to harness the spirit of that enemy and compel him to serve the shrinker. It was said that sewing the eyes and mouth, plugging the nose was to prevent the soul from escaping and avenging his death.
